Versa Networks

Versa Networks' software-based Cloud IP Platform strives to make it simple for distributed companies to manage their WAN architecture and cloud applications while moving from hardware to software-based networking environments. The Santa Clara, Calif.-based company was founded by a team of networking veterans who launched Versa in 2012.

Telecom provider CenturyLink offers SD-WAN services powered by Versa Networks. Cable giant Comcast also in May announced it was beta testing an SD-WAN service in collaboration with Versa Networks.
